How can I dedup across rows and columns in a pivot table?

I have a pivot table with data, but I need to find the number of times these values occur. However, a user can input the same value in different fields causing the same value to appear on different rows and in different columns. How can I dedup across all rows and columns to return the single value and total count it occurs?
For example:
Pivot
Col1 Col2 Col3
Here NULL NULL
NULL There Anywhere
Here NULL Here
Here Here NULL

Assuming you want to find the count of a specific string in all rows and columns, try this.
your current search giving output mentioned in the question
| eval temp=1 | untable temp colname colvalue | where colvalue="YourSpecificString"
| stats count
